Customer Reviews Nike Musique III SL

You might not need to order these half a size larger than your normal size. I heeded the suggestions from previous reviewers and ordered this in size 9 rather than my normal size 8½. With a thin sock, I felt the shoe was too long and my heel slipped out when I walked. I changed to a thicker athletic sock, and that helped the heel situation but not the length issue. So I just ordered the 8½M and we will see how that goes when it arrives. I also purchased the Nike Musique IV, Bloch Dance Sneaker and Ryka Studio D for comparison and preferred the styling of the Musique III (although I have to say my feet look really big in these shoes!) But, comfort and support are what I am after, and if the 8½M works, I will just make sure to not look down at my feet during zumba! I am returning the other three shoes. This style was the winner of the four I tried on.

I have a pair of Musique III in black (not the leather), and they feel the best for Zumba. This pair worked out really well, no need to break them in (just like the black pair) and pretty good cushioning at the balls of the feet (better than the black). I think the leather makes for a better quality show, feels more substantial. I wish they came in black leather, too. I wear orthotics that add arch support, so I've rated that part as average since it is modified for me.

Although I do not have a wide foot, a regular B-width, this shoe pinched my pinkie toes. In fact, during one Zumba class my toes went numb. It is otherwise a very comfortable shoe that needs no breaking in at all. The arch support was not enough, but I have very high arches. Another drawback is that the insole cannot be taken out if you would want to replace it with your own orthotic. Also, the shoe does not breathe very well, no mesh. I do like the looks and the low profile a lot. It just wasn't the shoe for me.

I have a long narrow foot and found these to be the perfect solution. I usually wear a 9 or 9.5 and I am glad I ordered the 9.5. They fit great. They also worked well for my zumba class. One shoe had a ripple in the material inside below the tongue - but it was in a location that didn't bother my foot (was afraid at first that it would). That is why the 4 stars instead of 5.

I not only like my Nike dance shoes, but I love Zappos more! At first I selected one size (I either wear a 7.5 or 8) wrong first choice, but wow was it ever easy to exchange. After that it was love of Zappos!

I love the back spin spot, it's definitely an extra bonus. They run very narrow, so if you have a wide foot, you might feel a littel squeezed until you break them in. Otherwise very comfortable, but could use more arch support.

Love the style of this shoe. It's all leather so I think it will be really easy to clean. Being so white, it does make your feet look a bit bigger. I usually wear a 7.5 but ordered it in an 8 as Nike tends to run a bit short for me. Fits perfect. If you like the style, I think you'll enjoy the fit and comfort for moderate periods. I wear on a cement floor and can endure for about 8 hours.

Feels very comfortable, a little too narrow a wide width would have been better.

The shoes are comfortable wanted a shoe for dance and was thinking it would be a smaller shoe but I do like them.

I really like these shoes. The only negative is the first time i put them on teh top eyelet came apart. It dosen't affect my wearing them but I am disappointed that they fell apart that easily. I don't have wide feet but these are a little narrow so if you do have Wide feet make sure you order wides.

Great shoe for Zumba. That's what I bought them for, because I didn't want to mess up my knees by twisting on carpet. Sometimes I still wish these shoes had even less traction, but I think that would be dangerous because I almost fell down walking on a wet kitchen floor with these babies. Arch support could be better, but my feet don't hurt after doing my Zumba workout. I love the sleek look - they look and feel great. I went running once in them, and that hurt my feet, but for their purpose, they do great.

I love these shoes but I have found that they seem to run a little small. I normally wear a 5 1/2 to a six in a shoe. In this shoe I would need to order a 6 1/2. This is the only reason I subtracted a star.

Excellent service from Zappos! The shoes are light and move great for Zumba, but run a bit small. After an hour Zumba class, my feet feel numb. I am hoping it gets better as they stretch out.

I ordered these for Zumba. The sizing is smaller than your normal size so order at least half size larger. I found the leather to be too stiff so I returned them for the same shoe with mesh instead of all leather.

I bought these shoes to use in Zumba classes and they are great. Definitely easier to dance in than my normal cross-trainers. I usually wear (and I bought) an 8... the shoes are a little narrow in the toes and a little wide in the ankle. It took some adjusting of the laces during the first couple classes to really get them to fit right, but now that they do, I wear them for every class. I would recommend these shoes for any dance style cardio class.

I bought these shoes for zumba classes. They are light, comfortable and have really helped me from tripping and stumbling during the moves. I'm now waiting for them to make me a dancer!

I started doing Zumba more and more and my old sneakers were just not helping with all the turning, etc. This shoe works much better! It feels a little tight, but if I don't pull the laces too tightly, it works very well.

I was very happy with my purchase. These are very comfortable shoes. They could have had just a little bit more support but overall a great buy for me.

These Nike shoes are awesome. Probably the most comfortable shoes I\'ve ever bought. My only wish is that the Nike emblem on the side was a little more discreet and not so in your face. This will probably limit where I wear them.

These shoes are much more supple than the synthetic leather style. They move easier and are a whole lot more comfortable. Great for aerobic dance. If anything, I'd have to say they are a bit warm. The nubuck areas don't allow air circulation. But they are still a great shoe!

I bought these sneakers for zumba and working out at the gym. I have a narrow foot and these sneakers fit nice for me. My foot would move too much in others that I have tried.

These shoes are very stiff and hard to break in and are not comfortable. Because of the stiffness, where the toes bend turned into a hard crease which rubbed against the top of my toes which was very uncomfortable.

Shoes are nice, they hurt the arch of my foot but that could be because I have wide feet. I also did Zumba in them and didn't feel much support.

I tried these three times in zumba and in sexy dance (tee hee) and although they are somewhat comfortable, they are very stiff and the tongue hits the top of my leg, it seems so long!

I like the shoe, however not for the purpose I bought it. I purchased the shoe for Zumba. For me, the shoe does not provide much support and my feet were hurting after 20 minutes on a one hour workout. I will use them for another purpose but not for Zumba.
